I just did a full retrofit in my F10 LCI using a pre-LCI M5 interior, which included running OEM wiring:

- Added full Merino leather dashboard
- Added 4-zone rear seat climate control (and wiring)
- Added 4-zone A/C Heater Housing Core Unit (and wiring) - requires dashboard removal
- Added 4-zone front dashboard stratification vents and controls (and wiring)
- Added B-pillar vents
- Added rear seat floor electric heaters (and wiring)
- Added heated steering wheel (and wiring)
- Added full Merino leather door cards
- Added rear door sun screens
- Added rear window sun screen (and wiring)
- Added rear heated seats (and wiring)
- Added full Merino leather font comfort seats
- Added full Merino center console
- Added individual wood trim
- Added Gentleman's switch
- Added Automatic high-beams (clock wheel change + coding)

I posted a few picture on post #13 at https://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1719598

Be glad to help when the time comes.....

Cheers
Such a beautiful interior. I did a CA retrofit on my blue E90 before and I fully understand how much work making a wiring harness is but I feel like the end result is so worth it. After everything is done including maintenance and retrofits I want to be about 15k USD into the car. Hopefully I can get everything done before the end of the summer as my internship opportunities were canceled due to corona. I feel like this will be the last time in my life were I will have the time to take on a large side project like this.
